Meet the lightsmiths
Radu
I believe that anything can be accomplished. And we owe it first and foremost to ourselves, to put in the effort to create the most beautiful things we are able to. One way of making sure that what we do is beautiful is to integrate as much of the background story and to keep it authentic. For the rest of the creative process let's just let our imagination run free. Gentlemen Works is the most soul-rewarding entrepreneurial endeavor I am currently involved in and I simply love seeing our creations take shape and gather people's appreciation.
Liviu
A gentleman by nature, with a constructive and creative perspective towards life, I like creating things with my own hands. Self-taught designer and artist, I see myself as an entrepreneur who believes that for every problem there is a solution – you just have to allow yourself enough time to find it. And one can experience a wonderful sense of accomplishment when the solution actually works.
And we are on a mission to save any piece of wood or metal, any bolt or piece of wire, any artifact of times long gone that can tell a story, that asks for a curious touch or has the inner beauty to attract your sight.
Our story began in 2014 with a pipe lamp gift for one of our best friends. Ever since, we grew project by project, creating lamps, furniture and decorations, starting from the stories our clients shared with us or the untold tales of the objects we found.
​We are Liviu and Radu, the incredibly handy and the incurable dreamer, dedicating ourselves to finding the right shape, colour and texture for the works we are creating. We are Gentlemen Works and here are our creations.
We are lightsmiths, designers and manufacturers, attracted to industrial style, inspired by retro charm, driven by upcycling, dreaming of steampunk, dieselpunk, raypunk and all sorts of vintage greatness.
